my grandmother was a Burns from Scotland so your beautiful pipes always hit me in the heart. play on sir. (<:

This is the theme from the series. I have heard it often. beautiful.

I really enjoy your instrumentation of these old tunes...wonderful!

It really minds of guid auld Isle of Skye, thank you, tapadh leat.

It's a peaceful song. I love the sound of bagpipes and this song makes me feel the wind.

When you've got to burn the midnight oil while staying cool, calm, and alert, try a cuppa Midnight Coffee.

Midnight Coffee

they eat your legs first

Here's an old Scottish tune that used to be a sailors' song or barcarolle. It's now played as a lullaby or as a Slow March for the pipers. Due to some of the lyrics that are attached to it, the song can illustrate the escape of Bonnie Prince Charlie, the last of the Stewart's pretender, toward the isle of Skye, after the battle of Culloden (1746). As you may know, it is also the main theme of the TV Series “Outlander”.

Voici une ancienne mélodie écossaise qui était autrefois une chanson de marins ou une barcarolle. Elle est maintenant jouée comme une berceuse ou comme une Slow March pour les joueurs de cornemuse. En raison de certaines des paroles qui y sont attachées, la chanson peut illustrer la fuite de Bonnie Prince Charlie, le dernier des prétendants Stuart, vers l'île de Skye, après la bataille de Culloden (1746). Comme vous le savez peut-être, c'est aussi le thème principal de la série télévisée "Outlander".

The Skye Boat Song

Midnight Racing

These vocals nearly killed me, more of a songwriter than a singer. Next song I write might only have a 3 step range!...Dementia, Alzheimer's is a terrible reality for so many. I wrote the first verse from the perspective of the afflicted one and the second verse from the caregiver’s . The cover art is being created before I release on the streamers in early 2025, but here it is for meySoundClouders. I promise, the next song will be a more joyful tune...I hope!

Lost Mixtape

4. Paddy Brings Peace To My World  - my other grandfather was a Wellington pilot in the RAF during World War Two. He sadly died in 1943 so I never met him. His death left a huge impact on my grandmother (who never married again) and my dad. She said he was very loving and thoughtful and felt he would have been thinking about them right to the end. That’s the approach in this song. His nickname for her was Paddy. No idea why!  Mastered by RCD Audio. 
Paddy brings peace to my world 

Crete below us, and in this night sky
Angry fires around us as we fly
They want to stop us but they can’t win
Got to see the ones we love again  

Duralumin beams form a latticed frame
Carry and protect us from flack and shells and flame 
We’re just so frightened, five anxious scared young men
Just want to see our homes again 

And I pray that they’re safe
I did what I could 
Took leave and followed Anderson’s plans
and dug 3 metres into the Surrey soil 
14 pieces of aluminium, a small sump in the floor 
All I could do to protect them from this damn war 

Because 
This crazy world has lost its mind
Angry, cruel, insane!
Paddy brings peace to my world
She soothes and she calms and she’s kind
I keep her here, in my heart and my mind
Paddy brings peace to my world 

A publishers accountant , a chippie and two clerks
and a teacher all together, up here in the dark
We’re doing our duty, the best we can
But we’ve taken too much damage and I doubt we’ll land 

Radio messages, saying we’re on fire and losing height 
We’re trying to put them out, we’re all paralysed with fright
Just trying to make it back

And I’m imagining what’s next for her
She’ll be told at first that we’re missing
Maybe dead, or prisoners of war
But she’ll never give up on me 
That’s why I’m trying to make it back 
to Paddy 

Because 
This crazy world has lost its mind
Angry, cruel, insane!
Paddy brings peace to my world
She soothes and she calms and she’s kind
I keep her here, in my heart and my mind
Paddy brings peace to my world

Paddy brings peace to my world

A classic guitar track. Theme and performance - LeoMReznik.                                           
      This time I decided to record something in the traditional classical style. This winter is still causing exactly such feelings... Some of you, my friends, may like this simple composition. I'll be glad to.

Winter Adagio

I am sombercascade:  

Im sombercascade, an artist from the Xanax and ‘God” filled hill country north of San Antonio, Texas, and music for me is not just a craft—it is the primal pulse of existence, a conduit for the strange collisions of melancholy and defiant hope that swirl inside my head. My art is a slow descent into the churning depths emotions can take us, a plunge through dreamscapes of shimmering dread and ephemeral beauty.  

This album is the current pinnacle of sombercascade.
